How do you mount your ME66?

[Kristofer]

Just decided to go with the Sennheiser K6/ME66 for my DVX100, to begin with anyway. I'll also get a wireless lav.

But as the K6/ME66 is rather long i wonder if you guys who use the ME66 mount it? In the original mount or do you get another one?
With a Rycote on its hard NOT to get it in the wider image and due to its weight it kind of hangs a bit ...

Any tips?

Get a pistol grip or boom pole.

If you want it to mount onto the camera, you can jerry rig a height extender.

Here is what I recommend:

PSC Universal Shock Mount small

Sennheiser 3/8" to 5/8" thread adapter (part number mza216)

AKG hotshoe adapter (part number km231/1)

This will allow you to mount the mic on the top of the camera. The cool thing is you can use this mount on a boom pole as well. Avoid putting a pistol grip on your camera. It adds un-needed weight and bulk.
